  • Editorial style

I'm Katherine, a wedding photographer based in Oakland, CA. With over a decade of experience and features in Vogue, Brides, The New York Times, and more, I know how to create wedding photos that don’t just look stunning — they feel like you. No trendy filters, no forced poses, just authentic moments that reflect who you are. I believe the best moments aren’t staged. They unfold naturally, in the quiet glances, the belly laughs, and those unspoken connections shared with your loved ones. My goal is to capture those raw, in-between moments that truly make your wedding day yours!

Thirty years documenting our beautiful people, from set up portraiture to long lens candids. I know how to tell a moving and beautiful story.

I’m a SF Bay Area photographer with almost seven years of experience capturing life’s quiet, beautiful moments, from the anticipation of maternity to the tenderness of newborn days and the joy of growing families. In the past year, I found myself drawn to something new: weddings. I began second shooting and quickly realized how much I loved being part of a couple’s most meaningful day. But it was the micro weddings and elopements that truly spoke to me .Intimate, intentional celebrations where every detail feels personal and every moment holds weight.

“From the moment we first connected with By ASTERIA Weddings, their efficient, friendly, and detail-oriented communication style put us at ease. Their professional and organized presence on the day of our wedding allowed us to relax and truly enjoy each moment, confident that every special detail was being beautifully documented. The quality of their work was exceptional - the photos are aesthetic, elegant, and creatively captured, perfectly reflecting the joy and emotion of our day.

I’m Stavan Shah, Creative Director at Vision infinie, a luxury wedding studio devoted to documenting celebrations with artistry and thoughtful storytelling. With over a decade of experience and formal education in Photography from The School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston and CEPT School of Architecture and Design in India, photography has always been both my craft and creative pursuit.

“Stavan was an amazing photographer for my wife and I. He was so responsive throughout the process, and we planned our wedding for over 9 months in the middle of a pandemic, so there was need for LOTS of communication! Stavan and his assistant were unbelievably professional. He took incredible photos and got them back to us before we even finished our honeymoon!

  • Serves Oakland, CA

With a candid style and two decades of professional photography experience, my passion is capturing real moments and creating photos that tell your story. Living in the San Francisco Bay Area, I am proud to work in the diverse communities here, and welcome the diversity of my clients who are looking to both honor past family traditions as well as create some of their own. My approach to wedding photography is simple; the day of the wedding is about two people coming together to celebrate their marriage with their loved ones, and photos are about connection and trust. My goal is to have your photographs remind you of how you felt that day.

“Sonya was truly a pleasure to work with and we are extremely glad we went with her over all the other photographers out there. We were first interested in her when we saw her online portfolio and liked her style. Afterwards, we met her in-person to ask questions and go over the whole process. Sonya was extremely pleasant to talk to with her warm and professional demeanor. She answered all our questions and went over the contract with us in great detail. After deciding to go with her, Sonya reached out to set an engagement shoot date. The engagement shoot went smoothly and Sonya never rushed us or seemed in a rush. Even when we went over the designated hours set for us, she stayed until we finished going throughout the entire place we went to. Of course the photos all turned out great and we even used a few inside the wedding as features. On the day of the wedding, Sonya showed up exactly on time with her assistant photographer. She is very professional, personable, and wonderful to work with! In between our ceremony and reception, we were able to do a 20-min photoshoot. Sonya knew immediately which shots to take and the photoshoot went very, very smoothly. She has amazing attention to detail and she knows exactly what she is doing. After we received the photos back from her, we loved her work and had so many amazing photos to choose from! Overall, we give our highest recommendation to Sonya! Additionally, she replies very quickly to inquiries and when we were planning the wedding. It was great to have quick communication. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you Sonya!!!”

I've been photographing weddings in the San Francisco Bay Area for over 16 years, and what keeps me coming back is the same thing that drew me in from the start: those fleeting, unguarded moments that you can't stage or recreate. The way you hold your breath before walking down the aisle. The look you exchange when you think no one's watching. The quiet, tender moments that happen in between all the big ones.

“I have had the pleasure of working with Meg on countless weddings and shoots and I can honestly say after watching her in action for years that she is super talented, professional, and fun/easy to work with! She caters her photos to each client so it's personal and full of each couple's personality - even if you don't really like taking photos, Meg makes the process easy and fun! And the icing on the cake is that her work is absolutely beautiful - you'll be so excited to display your photos!

“Chris from CH Photography was amazing to work with! I’m usually camera shy and awkward when posing, but Chris was so funny and made the entire session feel easygoing and relaxed. Weddings are naturally stressful and fast-paced, with so many photos to capture in a short amount of time, but he handled everything with ease. He was also very accommodating when it came to booking. He worked out a payment plan that allowed me to pay monthly over a little over a year so I could still book him, which I really appreciated. There was a small payment tracking mishap along the way, but when I showed proof of my payments, he was open to acknowledging his mistake and correcting it. Chris also referred us to our videographer, and the two of them worked wonderfully together. We got married at The Grove, and Chris knew the venue well and was knowledgeable about the best spots for photos. We’re still waiting on the rest of our wedding photos, but our sneak peeks are absolutely gorgeous! He even resent them when he noticed I hadn’t opened them after over a week, which showed how attentive and considerate he is. Overall, Chris made the photography experience enjoyable, was accommodating throughout the process, and has already given us beautiful photos to look back on. I’m so excited to see the rest of our gallery and would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a wedding photographer!”
